Trump says he will offer 'gold cards' for $5 million path to citizenship, replacing investor visas
So, does this mean I can sell my citizenship for $5 million?
Looks like tomorrow will bring votes on a Republican plan to fund tax cuts for the rich by slashing Medicaid.
So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.

What the actual fuck?! America, it’s time to rise. When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty!
When I heard Musk say this on Tuesday, my assumption was that it was a programming issue. Because I can code and have written to databases and because I am familiar with other examples of default values being misinterpreted.
Yet somehow Musk isn't.

SCOOP: The US Treasury claimed a DOGE's Marco Elez didn’t have ‘write access,’ when he actually did. Sources tell WIRED that his ability to alter code controlling trillions in federal spending was rescinded, days after officials said it didn't exist.
I linked DOGE staffer Marko Elez to a deleted X account that advocated repealing the Civil Rights Act, backed a “eugenic immigration policy,” and wrote, “You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity."
He just resigned. www.wsj.com/tech/doge-st...

Elon Musk staff has been caught installing hard drives inside the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), the Treasury Department, and the General Services Administration (GSA).
Unelected agents of a oligarch have seized core services of the state without legal sanction or authorization; yes, that's a coup
I just read about this today. I hope it makes its way to the public.
